Banksy at the Oscars

I really hope 'Exit Through the Gift Shop' takes home the Oscar for Best Docu. I love Banksy. I think what I love about him most is that he makes the gray area between Art and Vandalism really colourful.

The snark
"I used to encourage everyone I knew to make art; I don't do that so much anymore."

 "Yeah, I was faced with that terrible thing, when somebody shows you their work and everything about it is shit... so... you don't really know where to start."

"Uhmmm... You know... it was at that point that I realized that maybe Thierry wasn't actually a film maker, and he was maybe just someone with mental problems who happened to have a camera."


and the blatant Oscar campaign




are lovely perks.

sum pisces ... or you are what you eat.

the cream dory i bought over a week ago was begging to be cooked. every time i opened the freezer to get ice cream, frozen berries or bread, i can hear its fishy cry. "i've had enough of your cold treatment." *sob*

and because i like funny fishies, i gave in.

Dill Do Panfried Cream Dory with Lemon-Butter and Dill Sauce

what you need:
• seasoned flour
• the rest of the ingredients are in the dish' name :p

what to do:

• heat a non-stick pan, melt butter. add oil to prevent butter from burning
• dredge dory in flour seasoned with salt, black and cayenne pepper
• fry. and fry until you succeed.
• fish out the um, fish.
• add (more) butter to the pan and deglaze it with the juice of half a lemon
• pour lemon-butter love over the fish
• serve with dill sauce
 



clockwise: seasoned flour, butter, cream dory and lemon, dill sauce
finally, a fish that fits that damn plate!

dill-icious (sorry, i had to go there haha)
